For the most part, the boys are pretty easy to keep entertained. Ike definitely more so than Dave! So, here's a little of what we do on a day-to-day basis to keep everyone sane.
They really enjoy playing with any kind of weaponry. Not the best pastime, but we do teach them not to attack each other. Parents of the year...
Ike with his favorite toy: the hatchet.
He will seriously seek that thing out if it's not in plain sight. He has also recently found the crowbar that goes with the fireman set too, he was super excited!
Dave has really gotten into Beyblades lately. For those who don't know, they're like battling tops that you rip into an arena to see which stays spinning the longest. He inherited a bunch of them from a friend, and spends hours playing with them.
This usually ends with Ike chasing the Beyblades all over-here's a video.
They both also enjoy watching the mowers go by. This happens once a week, and they get so excited.
Both standing still for once!
We spend tons of time outdoors, especially at our neighborhood park. Ike loves to swing, and Dave loves to go find adventures.
His newest trick-climbing the big rocks.
When Dave is needing a distraction (like when he is driving Ike crazy), we just redirect him to playing super heroes. He really loves being Superman, and then changing into Rambo half way through.
My heroes!
Ike loving his cape.
And finally, everybody loves a good round of music. Josh enjoys playing guitar and Dave likes to pretend along with his own. Video of Dave playing a song from church.
Concert during Dave's bath.
So there you have it-a few ways to entertain a toddler and baby. Probably a little unconventional, but it works for us!
